Chapter 738 Punishment or protection?
The snow fell quite a lot of time on the Dayuan realm at this time. After all, it was a dynasty that went north. In comparison, the Dafeng Dynasty was a little southerly.
However, it also snows in more than half of the areas.
The Great Phoenix Emperor's Capital, the Imperial Palace.
Half a month has passed since the last time I went to court, because the emperor was poisoned by the princess sent by Xiliang Kingdom to marry him, so far, the poison has not been completely removed.
Of course, after many disasters last year, we are now at peace and have not had so many complaints.
Therefore, it is understandable that the emperor takes this opportunity to take more rest and condition.
In order to pray for the emperor, the Supreme Emperor ordered all civil and military officials to follow Rusu. Only on New Year's Eve, the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the second day of the Lunar New Year, can you eat meat and fish. After these three days, people are still mainly vegetarian.
This is a bit difficult for all officials to endure.
But who dares to say anything? It’s all right to obey.
Harem.
Empress Xiao was teaching the second prince to read the poem, and the two legitimate princesses, the fourth princess and the fifth princess next to him, were no longer young, and they would crawl around.
"Empress, this is the soup sent from the kitchen. Can you take some?" The great palace maid Zi Su came up with the soup and said.
"Let's go." Queen Xiao waved her hand.
"The mother's health is important, my son read it myself." The second prince said in a silence.
Empress Xiao smiled in her eyebrows and said, "The Second Prince is intent."
As he said that, he asked Zi Su to bring it over and drink the soup.
The second prince nodded and then read his own book seriously. When the time was almost done, Empress Xiao asked him to go back and asked the nurse to carry the fourth princess and the fifth princess to rest.
"Empress, please take care of yourself." Zi Su said, supporting her.
"I have no health in my palace." Queen Xiao said indifferently. She was used to the recurrence of the illnesses left by the two legitimate princesses.
Zi Su pursed her lips and said, "The imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital are really useless. It has been so long since this has passed, but the root cause of the disease has not been removed!"
"They are not gods, and if they can be cured well, they will not be delayed until this time." Queen Xiao said coldly.
"I heard that Feng's young lady..." Zi Su hesitated.
"How could the Young Lady of Feng come to treat me?" Empress Xiao waved her hand and said. As the young lady, how could those doctors compare to the uncrowned king like Feng?
"Does the Empress want to sell the personal favors of Weiyang Palace?" Zi Su pursed her lips and said.
"Do you want me to plead with the emperor and let Concubine Yue come back?" Queen Xiao said indifferently.
"Empress, Young Lady Feng and Queen Yue have a very good relationship. If you sell Princess Yue's personal favor, it's okay to ask Princess Yue to invite Mrs. Feng to come as a guest." Zisu said.
"I know you are worried about my health, but it is not easy for me to meet the emperor now, so how can I sell her favor?" Queen Xiao said lightly.
She really didn't mind letting Concubine Yue come back. Although it was because Concubine Yan was demoted to Ganlu Temple, Concubine Yan's charge of conspiring to kill the emperor was confirmed, and the Western Liang Kingdom was destroyed.
However, Concubine Yue from Ganlu Temple was still not recalled to the palace. Queen Xiao felt that this time it was really cold.
The emperor was poisoned by Concubine Wang and resented Concubine Wang. He was afraid that he would still implicate Concubine Yue. Until now, the emperor's dragon body has not yet recovered, and he basically can't come to the harem.
Under such a premise, it’s nothing to transfer people back from Ganlu Temple.
But the emperor is not here to come to the harem now, and he hasn't even come on New Year's Eve, so he rests in Panlong Palace to recuperate. What chance does she have to speak?
Zi Su cursed: "It was also the traitor of Concubine Yan, who was sent by Xiliang Kingdom to murder the emperor. Fortunately, the emperor loved her so much!"
Empress Xiao waved her hand: "I'm talking about this, but everyone has been killed."
She was really not interested in Concubine Ye, and asked again: "After so long, the Ganlu Temple has taken it seriously and has not sent any news back?"
"Not." Zi Su said: "There was a letter from outside. Now Ganlu Temple cannot even fly in. The guards are very strict. Even Madam Yan returned to the palace early. If there is no accident in this life, she may have been in Ganlu Temple for the rest of her life!"
Who in the palace is not rumoring Concubine Yue to the end?
But she asked for it herself. She invited this Ganlu Temple to herself. Now this is a disguised self-inflicted self-inflict!
Queen Xiao said nothing and sighed: "I only hope that the emperor's dragon's physical fitness will be healthy as soon as possible."
Her second prince is still young and has not grown up yet. She still needs the emperor to teach her well to bear the great responsibility.
"Empress, Concubine Xi's heart is getting bigger and bigger now. She is almost becoming the second Concubine Shu!" Zi Su said again.
Queen Xiao frowned and said, "What's wrong with her?"
"But there are a lot of eyeliners installed everywhere!" Zi Su said.
Queen Xiao snorted coldly: "Since she gave birth to the fifth prince, her heart has grown day by day, but she is afraid she is not qualified to become the second concubine."
What was the status of Shufei’s mother’s He Mansion back then? It was a first-class wealthy family, but what ended up in the end?
What kind of portal is Xifei's mother's family now? In recent years, Xifei has been ranked among the concubines. Otherwise, it would be considered a third-rate family to be praised.
In this way, Concubine Xi wanted to find some waves.
Of course, after being dormant for so long, Empress Xiao would not underestimate the enemy too much, but what should be suppressed will still be suppressed.
The next day, Concubine Xi was summoned to the palace gate of Fengqi Palace and stood for a full hour before she could let her go back.
At the same time, a palace maid in Huanshayuan who was responsible for receiving Fengqi Palace was washed and was sent out of the palace due to the cold.
The palace naturally had some speculations about these things, and they were all talking about what the relationship between this palace maid and Concubine Xi?
Otherwise, how could Concubine Xi be punished by the Empress? The Empress would never be punished for no reason!
After hearing the news, Concubine De of Jinghui Palace chuckled.
"Empress, Concubine Xi is quite brave." said Madam Gong.
"Weiyang Palace has fallen, she can't sit still." Concubine De said with a faint smile.
Madam Gong frowned slightly: "How could Weiyang Palace fall? The old slave doesn't look like it. Ganlu Temple is surrounded like an iron bucket. This is obviously protecting the Weiyang Palace, right?"
"What is protection? It is guarding." Concubine De said with a sarcastic look on her face: "If you really want to protect her, the palace is the safest place."
With the emperor personally protecting him, who in the harem has the courage to start? This is easy to get accidents outside.
